"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, Mr Grosch has done an excellent job, and I hope that this will provide sufficient impetus to continue the development of the transport sector on the right track. I have stressed on several occasions in the past that in my opinion, we need to create an inclusive, sustainable, modern, environmentally sound and efficient transport system as soon as possible. One of the key aspects of this is a single charter of passengers’ rights that summarises the rules governing the various sectors of transport. I would specifically like to thank the rapporteur for expressly mentioning people with disabilities under this chapter.
However, they are not the only ones I would like to talk about now. As we know, Europe is a seriously ageing society. We, legislators, will be faced with the fact that we need to meet the relevant needs in the legislative process as well. In the coming period, the need for elderly and disabled citizens to also be able to use means of transport freely and under the same set of conditions will be increasingly visible. I believe that this report represents a clear message and I, too, would like to stress that we do need the European Commission to submit a proposal on this in early 2012."@en1
